... in the formation of gypsum karst and oil reservoir acid stimulations. As an initial step to understand groundwater flow and dissolution in fractures and in wormholes, pipe flow is used as a simplified representation of groundwater flow. The extended Graetz solution was developed by Li and Einstein, 2017...

Paper Number: ARMA-2017-0573
... ABSTRACT: When anhydrite dissolves upon contact with water, the sulphate and calcium ions in the pore water can lead to precipitation of gypsum. This anhydrite to gypsum transformation (AGT) results in an increase in the solid volume by 61% and in a decrease or increase in the pore volume...

... process of rocks containing single flaws and under uniaxial compression. The new contact model was first validated by using it to simulate the experimental cracking process of gypsum containing pre-existing single flaws at different inclination angles. Then the influence of flaw shape (length...
